Miracle Workers: Season 3 episode 1: This reminds me of how people still were in the 1950s when they were born in the 1800s

But, by the 1970s most of them were beginning to die off a lot because if you had been born in 1900 or before you were going to be 70 or more years old. And though some of my relatives lived to be 105 or so most did not who were born from 1840 to 1860. My Great Grandfather I never met because he was born in the 1840s and died around 1940 or so in Kansas. My Great Grandmother lived into the 1950s but I never met her because I have never been to Kansas either still. My Great Grandfather was a Captain in the Civil War for the Kansas Northern Army and after that bought medicines from a local tribe of Indians and started a drug store where he lived in the 1870s which he ran until 1925 when he sold it and retired and then lived to about 1940 and I was born in 1948. His wife, my Great Grandmother lived into the 1950s to 105 years of age. So, he lived into his 90s and she lived to 105 years of age. 

So, this Miracle Workers series with Steve Buscemi and Daniel Radcliffe is pretty funny and really gets how eccentric people were from the 1800s compared to now. They seem to capture the essence of the craziness it took to survive then in this comedy wild west show on TBS-HD-W network. I was able to set up an automatic DVR of the whole season as it comes out on my TIVO. So far it's just episode 1 but if you read the article there are ways if you wish to stream the first two seasons (which aren't about the wild west by the way) if you are interested. I personally already have Netflix, Prime, Acorn and Gaia and I think that's enough streaming services for now to pay for. (Prime, Acorn and Gaia I view directly through Amazon prime by the way). Acorn gives me things like British, Australian and New Zealand and other shows like Mis Fisher's murder mysteries and Miss Fishers Modern murder mysteries. The first is set in Flapper days after world War I in Australia and the 2nd is set in the late 1960s (maybe 1965 to 1969) or so with Perigrine (miss fisher's niece in Australia). There are many other English speaking shows on Acorn as well. Gaia was because my oldest daughter was interested in some of those shows while she was visiting. 

The third season is a wild west version that takes place I believe in the 1840s on a wagon train to Oregon on the Oregon Trail.

Here is something I found about the series:

Hey Cord-Cutters! Don't Worry — There Are Ways to Stream Season 3 of 'Miracle Workers'

Viewers and critics alike loved the first two seasons of the Daniel Radcliffe and Steve Buscemi-led Miracle Workers, although it flew slightly under the radar. The first season centers around an employee of Heaven trying to save Earth when a run-down God decides to cancel the planet.

The second season goes in a different direction — the same cast is now in medieval times and instead of playing God, Steve Buscemi is a literal poop scooper. TBS’s Miracle Workers is actually an anthology series, so every season takes place in a different time and place, but with mostly the same cast. So how can we stream the third season of Miracle Workers?

The first two seasons of ‘Miracle Workers’ are available to stream on HBO Max.

Although Miracle Workers lives on TBS, we can luckily stream the first two seasons on HBO Max! Like Friends and Rick and Morty, HBO Max houses many shows that began on cable. So if we need a refresher, we can access our HBO Max accounts on any device or computer and check out Miracle Workers.

The first two seasons are based on stories by Simon Rich, who was an SNL writer. The third season, while it may not be based on a Simon Rich story, still has him involved.

It’ll take place along the Oregon Trail during the Wild West and will bring back returning stars Geraldine Viswanathan, Karan Soni, and Jon Bass alongside Steve and Daniel. And joining the cast is none other than the hilarious Paul F. Tompkins.

There are a few ways to stream ‘Miracle Workers’ if you’re a cord-cutter.

If you don’t have access to cable or to a cable account, there are some ways to stream Miracle Workers, but they’re not free. AT&T TV has four packages that all include TBS. Then use the AT&T TV app to stream Miracle Workers. However, this option is pretty pricey at $69.99 per month — at that point, we might as well get cable.

Sling TV is another cheaper option at $35 per month, which also includes TBS. Sling also comes with 50 hours of DVR, which is a pretty sweet deal. The final option is Hulu + Live TV, but Miracle Workers, unfortunately, won’t stream on Hulu without the Live TV option.

If you do have access to a cable account, whether yours or a friend’s or an ex-partner’s, you can get full access to most cable channels' apps, TBS included. So in that case, just download the TBS app, sign in under your alias, and watch either “Live TV” or Miracle Workers on demand.

Is ‘Miracle Workers’ on Netflix or Hulu?

Well, Miracle Workers isn’t technically on either streaming service. For now, it lives on HBO Max, so it’s not currently on Netflix or Hulu. However, it will be on Hulu + Live TV, so if you have the whole Hulu package with all the extras, then it’ll be possible to watch Miracle Workers that way.
